VG/VG . not price clipped. .no inscriptions or marginalia. This amazing survival story tells how Jim Wright, a Norfolk gamekeeper's son, aged 23, managed to evade capture by the Japanese during the last few days of the battle on the Malayan mainland. It goes on to describe how Wright, wounded in the foot and finally abandoned by his wounded comrades, struggled alone for two months to survive and to rejoin his comrades on Singapore Island, not knowing that they had already surrendered. Hobbling painfully through the jungle, terrified by its strange noises, betrayed by Malays and often hiding only a few feet from Japanese patrols; starving, often without water and utterly exhausted, he slowly made his way towards Singapore. Eventually, almost dead, he was picked up by Chinese communist guerillas who took him to join twenty-five other British and Australian soldiers who were living in a jungle camp. Within a year all his companions had either died or been captured or killed by the Japanese, except for four. Two of these died in 1944 and Jim and one other were the only ones to come home in 1945.
